Become A Recycling Ambassador

If you are a strong recycling advocate and would like to be more engaged in this effort in our community, consider volunteering as a Recycling Ambassador! You can play a vital role in helping our community to "recycle right" at our Timberline Recycling Center. Below, you'll find a description of our volunteer position and what training will be involved.

This unpaid volunteer position (at the new Timberline Recycling Center) will include the following duties:

Greet and welcome Recyclers

Answer recycling questions

Hand out flyers

If possible and willing, assist (disabled or elderly) Recyclers to unload materials

No need to "police" Recyclers; however, safety is a #1 priority, so volunteers will report any unsafe conditions to the City

Note: if you are 16 or 17 years of age, a parent will need to sign your application, but will not need to accompany you volunteering.

CityWorks 101 is an eight-week program that gives residents a behind-the-scenes look at running a city. The course is a unique opportunity for residents to learn more about what services the City provides, and how the City provides them.

This short term summer camp and service learning program is designed specifically for Fort Collins high school students in partnership with Poudre School District. Students can learn about how their City works, the many career paths available and ways to be civically engaged.

The Gardens on Spring Creek is the community botanic garden of Fort Collins. All are invited to visit the display gardens, take a gardening class, enjoy special events and . . . Take Root. Grow. Flourish.
